Pats Beat Hurricanes 6-2; WHL East Final Down to Best of 3

Picture: Lethbridge Herald

The Regina Pats needed to find a way to solve Lethbridge goalie Stuart Skinner in Game 4 of the WHL East final if they were going to even the series at 2. They did!

It took a while to crack the armor of Skinner, but goals late in the second period from Adam Brooks and Dawson Leedahl just 70 seconds apart gave Regina a 4-2 lead. They added to that lead in the 3rd with goals from Connor Hobbs and Wyatt Sloboshan.

Brooks had 3 points on the night as did Hobbs while Tyler Brown stopped 24 shots to record the win.

Brown outplayed Skinner. Bottom line. The 2nd goal was a little iffy, but the Pats found out again if you keep pounding, you will eventually break through. Still going to be tough winning two of the next three, but I remain confident. I also remain ticket-less for Game 5. SIGHHH!
